I'm listening to my Oldies station & I don't know if this would be worth a whole thread or not. I wanted to ask about Disco, but sometimes if you bring that up, people look at you funny, at least aound here, at times.

At the time I hated it (I was into punk and it was an either/or kind of thing), but since I've grown more measured in my tastes I've found I really like some Bee Gees, Chic, etc.

I remember a delicious moment standing in a motor park in Niger (think hot, dusty compound full of people waiting to go somewhere, but not much happening) when "Night Fever" came on someone's radio.

You could see everyone starting to enjoy the music. It was almost like a scene from a film where everyone suddenly starts grooving completely out of context, and I was SO tempted to start the dancing to see if anyone would join in. Sadly I didn't dance, my taxi filled with passengers and left, and that was that!

I'm sort of feeling not as confident about things I write lately.
I really like talking to people about things.
But I have been doing a lot of listening of BBC radio & I'm enjoying the news from a different perspective & music I don't hear on my local stations. Like a band called The Kooks. That's a weird name, but I think that's what I heard. I have never heard of anything like that, but a song I heard by them was pretty good. I also heard Pink, which sounded good.

There were a couple of songs I've heard by him & sort of liked & others I didn't. He hasn't really been a huge favorite, as far as what I've heard. I haven't even heard the songs you guys have mentioned so I don't even have enough knowledge about David Bowie to give an opinion on him. I liked Fame! I'll try to think more on this & have more to say.

I used to own an album by a band called Alan Parson's Project. Did anyone like them at all? I don't have it around anymore, but I think there was one song on the whole thing that was good & the rest were kind of bland. I think they were related to Pink Floyd in some way.
